Survival Fishing Kit

This is a fishing kit I made for a Gentleman in Virginia.  I got the idea to make these from this video on YouTube.  Pocket Fishing Kit Pt. 1

I have enjoyed making these and have tested them.  They will float if you do not put an over abundance of split shot in the tube.  I have caught small Crappie on these rigs.  No huge lunkers, but a meal in a pinch.

New Tools To Play With

I recently acquired a brand new Foredom Power Carver.  This is my second session with it on the same piece.  Granted this is a huge departure from my lets do it the traditional (hard) way.  But, I think I am really liking this tool!

Stay tuned!

Making stuff again

I finally have some dexterity and range of motion so, I can make a few things.  Granted these are not wood working or carving related, but there are some things that work well with wood in the photo.

Thanks for looking!
